On Saturday, Feb. 11,the Parkview Fieldconcourse will be takenover by some brave souls,each person “freezin’ for areason” at the 2012 FortWayne Polar Plunge.

The event raises moneyto provide year-roundsports training and athleticcompetitions for childrenand adults with intellec-tual disabilities throughSpecial Olympics Indianaand Allen County. Theorganizations rely oncorporate, civic and indi-vidual donations to keepthe program alive andreceive no federal- or

state-appropriated funds.“We’re celebrating this

year with somethingbigger and better than everto bring in more of a

draw,” said plunge co-chair Julia Fiechter. The

Mike Thomas and Associ-ates Realtor has been aSpecial Olympics volun-

teer and fundraiser foryears.

In a new twist on analready popular event, theParkview Field concourse,

1301 Ewing St., will belined with new, unuseddumpsters filled with ice-cold water, donated byRepublic Services, Inc.Daredevils will take theplunge at noon, andparticipants who raisedthe most money will enjoya luxurious hot-tub soak sponsored by Master Spas.

It’s a pretty good incen-tive to raise the mostmoney, considering theaverage February high inFort Wayne is just 34degrees.

“I know, it sounds crazyand it is … and it’s cold,”Fiechter said.

To participate, eachindividual must raise atleast $75 in pledges tobenefit Special Olympics.Prior to the event, partici-pants must commit to the2012 Fort Wayne PolarPlunge by registeringonline at www.first-giving.com/soindiana/12fortwayne.

Small changescan make a big difference

Small changes in yourdiet can increase yourenergy levels, improveyour hand-eye coordina-

tion, help with weight lossand even improve thevibrancy of your skin. Thefollowing are commonnutritional mistakes thatare easily fixed with alittle planning. Learn howa few changes canimprove your overall well-being.

Skipping BreakfastAvoid skipping meals

and especially breakfast.The best way to keep yourmetabolism high is to eatconsistent meals. Yourbody needs to fuel upbefore activities.

Remember to eat for thefuture, not for the past.When the body hasconsistent meals, it avoidsgoing into starvationmode. Even though mostof us have plenty of foodavailable, the body readsinconsistency of mealtiming as a means to kick into survival mode.

Instead of using storedbody fat, it will hold on toit. The metabolism slowsto conserve energy andmuscle is often used forfuel.

Skipping breakfast not

only slows your metabo-lism making it harder tolose body fat, but it alsodecreases your hand-eyecoordination.

To feel your best, starteating breakfast and make

better choices throughoutthe day. Also, stop eating2-3 hours before bedtimeso you are sure to wake uphungry.

If eating before bed is anecessity, choose light,easily digestible foods.

Replacing meals withenergy bars or drinks

Although energy bars ordrinks can be convenient,they are still processedfoods that aren’t providingyou with proper nutrition.

Even though some barsare better than others, thedried fruits and granolas

are really high in sugar.They often contain

fortified nutrients,meaning that the items arenot naturally containingcertain nutrients, but theyare added to boast healthbenefits. There is just nosubstitute for nutrientscoming from real foodslike vegetables, fruits,proteins and complexcarbohydrates.

Reach for real foodwhen possible and try notto use energy bars or mealreplacement shakes as a

staple in your diet.

Choose food closest to itsnatural state for the mostnutritional value.

Trusting nutrientclaims

Be aware of how muchyou buy because of anutrient claim on apackage that boasts health.Most items claimingsomething aren’t really

that healthy.Common nutrient

claims include: “fat free,”“0 grams trans-fat,” “nohigh fructose corn syrup,”or “made with wholegrains.”

While these claims arethings we do need to beaware of, most are stillmade with ingredients thatoffer little to no nutritionalvalue.

Look at ingredient liststo determine what nutri-tion the food really has to

offer. Just because a brand of cookies claim to only have100 calories and no trans-fat doesn’t mean it’s healthy.It’s still a cookie that is made with white flour and sugar.

It’s best to avoid as many packaged foods as possible,no matter what they claim. Add more vegetables intoyour diet and reap the benefits of whole foods nutrition.

Not drinking enough waterNot drinking enough water can lead to dehydration and

every system in your body relies on water to function.Water helps flush out toxins in vital organs and helpscarry nutrients to cells.

According to the Mayo Clinic, even mild dehydrationcan drain your energy and make you tired. Although eachindividual requires a different amount of water accordingto several factors, the easiest way to start is to drink eight8 ounce glasses of water daily.

This means plain water, not flavored waters. Eliminatepop (diet or not) and sugary energy drinks and limitcoffee intake to increase consumption of water.

Getting enough water also helps with digestion, weightloss, headaches and much more. Try using a reusablebottle that you can take with you anywhere.
